  1. Help getting started, looking to buy stuff.

    Hey! I just got a letter from the guys at Daytona. They said I could jump in line at the next race! I just put a turbo on my Yugo and I think I have a chance. Anybody know where I can get some lettering? Anyone what to be my sponsor???
  2. New member. Hope you check us out. :)

    Sounds like we have a parent company buying up suppliers and creating different divisions. This is great...except they wholesale materials to one group, printing to another and possibly installation to another. This sounds more like a big sign shop serving wholesale and soon retail. So I would...
  3. How did you get into the signs business?

    I fell and hit my head. When I woke up with no memory, someone told me I painted signs for a living. I have been banging my head for over 25 years now...but can't seem too loose the memory again.

  5. Big printing problem. Printing a big job and I need help asap!

    De-humidify the material. Is it a new rool just off the truck? Needs drying out? That's a nasty head strike... are all of the rollers making contact with the materials edges?
  6. How land the big sale and keep the customer coming back

    Now Sarge, Janice has the true facts on sales! It's not how slick one can be, but how memorable. 5 to 12 contacts constitutes a "relationship" and people love to buy from "Friends" That is goooood stuff man!
  7. Big printing problem. Printing a big job and I need help asap!

    Run a piece of another file and see if the problem still exists. If not it may be a corrupt file. It looks as though the droplets are following the arc patter of the art. May not be the Heads, but the file.

    Thanks bob, I guess that kills the "signature series wrap" idea I had.... Funny, I started in art and ended up in signs!
  9. Do you add your Logo...

    Why not sign your work? That's what made all the famous artists famous. Just amagine, back then, that was their way to validate and market their business. So I think it's the same for us. Customers should be proud to display our work!

  13. Anyone using Eleven Ten Color Inks?

    Has anyone had them out in the elements for a long time? Concerned about fading down the road. Also, because of the heavy solvent smell, do you have to vent? If the ink is heavy solvent, does it leave a "relief" in the print? And how long is the "air out" time before lamination?

    Ask for an engineer who is versed in "Katia" it's a CAD program that renders in 3D. Look on the Embry Riddle Aeronautical University Forum for a student with experience in the program. Also check SAE "Society of Automotive Engineers" Photoshop will never do enough, go up a few hundred levels...

    I just read your post about the installer who left you with half a bus wrap. I never heard of anything like that, ever. The last bus we wrapped for a client was during the hurricane that went up the coast of Florida, stopped in Jacksonville then wandered over to Tallahassee. We actually watched...
